Description:
This promise drives everything we do. It makes every moment of your stay a special memory. It's in the smile that greets you. This warmth and friendliness you'll feel while you're here. In every corner, at every moment, you'll notice an attention to detail that shows our passion. It's the belief that makes us excel. It's our inspiration. It's the very essence of the Forbury, like spending time with an amazing family. We stay with you.
Step into the UK's leading townhouse hotel, now part of the exclusive von Essen collection.

The 23 rooms and suites arranged over four floors, blend design, art, lighting and sound to create a space that doesn't just look right, it feels right - this atmosphere permeates throughout the hotel...but it's about much more than the exquisite décor.

From the 86,000 Italian glass beads in the chandelier running the height of the building in the old lift shaft, to the opulent fabrics and wallpapers and attention to every single detail - there is simply no place in the UK as extraordinarily opulent and stunning. A bold statement, but true.

The private house feeling of the Forbury has been designed to allow our guests to unwind in a relaxing and comfortable environment.

The opulence isn’t just limited to the bedrooms and bathrooms - our four private dining rooms can cater from four to 40 guests. From the intimacy of the Cellar Dining Room or the Library and the jaw-dropping views of the Penthouse, the Forbury and our attentive staff know how to make your celebrations special in every detail. Your special day at the Forbury, a memorable and stylish occasion for you and all your guests. The hotel is licensed forcivil ceremonies, followed by a wedding reception in one of our elegant Rooms. Whatever you decide you will be assured that we have taken care of every detail, leaving you time to relax. It is important that everything is personalised to make your wedding day a truly memorable occasion.
The following will give you ideas to consider but we will be on hand to ensure everything is just perfect on the day:
. dedicated special events coordinator.
. accommodation for you and your guests on the night of your wedding.
. Champagne and wine recommendations from our Sommelier.
. floristry .
. personalised menus, place cards and table plans for the wedding breakfast.
. guidance on car transport, a wedding photographer and other specialised services.
